Pool Yellow shapes as the 'Group of Death', with the Warriors, who are likely to unleash new signing Sam Tomkins, to square off against Canberra, a Johnathan Thurston-led North Queensland and grand finalists Manly.

Pool Blue features Cronulla, Newcastle, Wests Tigers and the Titans, while Pool Red contains Melbourne, Penrith, Souths and the Dragons.

Meanwhile, Pool Green sees the Broncos grouped with Canterbury, Parramatta and the Roosters.

Pool B seems a lot weaker than the others. I'm sure the organisers could have evened up the pools better than they have.
 
It's all coming together.
You can just see it when Jamie Lyon goes to collect the trophy from Dick and Dave Smith.

It will be Smith Squared not E squared 😉

If Melbourne win and that Gronk with the crap name goes up to collect the trophy it will be Smith cubed 😉
 
you get the feeling the NRL doesn't want the warriors to win making them play back to back matches

maybe they REALLY want them or Canberra to win, seeing as they both play an extra match!
 
Game 14 should be Raiders v Cowboys as in that list, the Cowboys only have two games (Games 8 and 21).

The draw should read as follows if the Cowboys are slotted into that Game 14 position in place of the Warriors:

Team..........Games
Sharks........1........9........17
Knights.......1.......10.......18
Tigers.........2........9........18
Titans........2........10.......17
Roosters.....3........11.......19
Eels...........3........12.......20
Broncos......4........11.......20
Bulldogs......4........12.......19
Warriors......5........13.......21
Raiders.......5........14.......22
Sea Eagles..6........13.......22
Cowboys.....6........14.......21
Storm ........7........15.......23
Panthers.....7........16.......24
Rabbitohs....8........15.......24
Dragons......8........16.......23




The adjustment has been made in the official draw on NRL.com

Will this be on FTA or Fox in Australia? I'm pretty stoked about 2 solid days of watching footy, even if it is only nines.
